Destination Wedding | Koh Samui, Thailand

2014 was hectic for weddings! We had weddings all around the UK, into Europe and also setup a connection with a lovely wedding planner for Destination Weddings in Corfu. We also had a super last minute booking to capture Cynthia & Jason’s UK wedding at the end of July and then a week later I flew out to the island of Koh Samui, Thailand for their beach destination Wedding. I left on the Sunday and was away for 5 days, 2½ of which was travelling. I had to be back in the UK ready for another wedding the following Saturday.

As-well as consultations/meetings for your wedding photography with your formal/group photographs all noted in advance, we also like to do a pre-wedding shoot where possible. We see this as a vital part of the preparations for your wedding. Getting to know all our brides and grooms before the weddings means we’re not strangers to you on your day. This really does reflect in your photographs as you’ll both be more relaxed around us. It’s also a chance for you to see how we will be on your day. After the shoot a selection of the images are edited and put up on your weddings private gallery on our website where you can choose a complimentary 12″x8″ print.

HEADLINE: Wedding Photography: 21% of Brides said they’d spend MORE if doing it again! SHOCK!!

Bride’s were asked what they’d spend more if they could do their wedding again. It’s not so much of a shock to us but now it’s been brought to more Bride-to-be’s attention!

Every wedding has it’s own unique moments, it’s own story and way it will be remembered; the bride’s beautiful dress, the moving speeches, the ushers forgetting the buttonholes, Bestman forgetting the rings, the bride getting dropped during her first dance, the Bestman having a flat tyre, the vicar getting the brides name wrong in the ceremony. These all make your wedding special and personal to you (and ones we’ve experienced first hand!). But if you’re already married, would you change anything from your day?

Indian Wedding Celebrations

Last month we were asked by Arun Sharma if we could cover some Indian wedding celebrations for his brother, Nitin, the Groom who lives in Bridgwater but who was getting married up in Birmingham. Specifically we covered three very different events of the Indian Wedding all at Nitin’s parents home in Bridgwater; A party on the Friday night called the Ladies Sangeet and two religious ceremonies primarily conducted in Sanskrit and Punjabi – the Sainth Ceremony on Saturday afternoon and the Sehra Bandi (Sehrabandi) Ceremony on the Sunday morning of the wedding. We managed to fit all that was required of us into an already full and very busy weekend of meetings and shoots in the studio. Continue reading »

Whether you love them or hate them you can’t deny they’re here to stay. For us they’re an amazing way of connecting with YOU, our clients! We can instantly find out if you like something or if you’d like to see more of something.

You can find us on all of these social networking sites…..so get liking, following, tweeting, pinning, sharing, linking, G…err…plus/+’ing… (really?… Google didn’t think too hard about that did they? Actually, come to think of it they probably invested millions of dollars for a think-tank to come up with it! Anyway, I digress.)

Ok so I know this might be classed as bad taste but I had to post this and I’m just praying that karma doesn’t come right around and bite me! I am honestly doing it as a service to show what can happen…

We’re not really sure why the bride or groom didn’t try to stop or warn the poor fella but well….they didn’t…..resulting in very badtimes.

I shall, however, turn this around and make it into a post to warn future brides & grooms about the importance of making sure their wedding photographers have back-up equipment.
